I hope no one tries to sue me for any deaths that may occur out of their own stupidity.

It makes me laugh that I live in a suburb where house prices start at $450 000 and run into the Millions, yet as soon as some garbage is placed out in the street, they go through it to see what can be taken.

You know what the funniest thing is?

I put out a perfectly good vacuum cleaner that I didn't want anymore and it is still there! Yet the junk is gone.

heh, its getting very common in sydney now - the "kerbside krawlers"(TM). Around the council cleanup time, utes, light trucks and vans start patrolling looking for stuff to take ( and presumably re-sell ).

Its amazing, you'll see maybe 6 a day pass my place during clean-up time (and I live in a place where mormon / jw's are still yet to find ).

Any electrical gear I throw out, I have a policy of chopping off the cord / plug, to prevent anyone idly plugging in any possibly broken (or soggy) junk... These days you can never tell when your going to end up with a law suit
